I will repeat: That ranking was only one of all the possible ways to show how Van der Poel is not ahead. Total wins, total WT wins, biggest win, total points, points per km, UCI ranking, all time ranking, H2H, you name it.
When you compare two riders with each other, and of all the possible ways to compare them, one is only ahead when you look at one certain metric, it should be enough to make you think. Cav has two major wins, one monument and one WCC. In that regard he is already behind Evenepoel and Van der Poel. There is only one metric where Van der Poel is ahead of Evenepoel, and that is in monuments (2vs4), in all other possible comparisons, he is trailing, including single biggest win.
